Shot Fake Counter In and Out Basketball Drill

 

If you are playing against a good basketball defense, making one good move to get by your defender may not be enough to get your shot off. This basketball drill will work on a situation where you shot fake your defender and drive past him, but another defender steps up and cuts you off. You can either pick up your dribble and kick out to a teammate or make another move.

This basketball finishing drill will work on making an in and out move after the shot fake. When you do the in and out move, you want to try and freeze the defender in their tracks and then blow by them.
